With my 30 or so copies sold, it seems a change is needed in how I approach marketing Room 702. None of the 20 or so free copies I’ve sent out to industry professionals have hit or been reviewed anywhere, leaving me in a very non-publicized place. This morning I decided to make the book free on iTunes (sorry for those of you have supported me so far – please know your purchases mean the world to me!). I’m hoping for some reviews, some energy – something. Additionally, making the book free on iTunes should force Amazon to match the price (without opting the book into Kindle Select). Giving away the book is not really what I had in mind, but I need to gain an audience somehow.
I’m also debating putting together a marketing campaign for Labor Day (US), but am not sure I’m ready for failure if it inevitably happens.
In the meantime, I’ve started a new book and am 11,000 words in. #luckypenny
